Chapter 54 We Move At Sun Set

"Are you cool, or you want to head back?" Sato appealed, removing his hand from Elena's head.

"No!" Elena exclaimed, "I can still fight." She expressed it with passion.

With a smile on his face, Sato sat on the bed with his legs crossed, "So, What were you able to find out." He asked.

Elena directly spruced up her body to show her eagerness, "I don't know exactly what to call them, but I guess terrorist." She implied.

"Terrorist?".

"Not exactly, although the leader is a ghost, from the council of five… I think his name was."

"Gudan… ghost of the netherworld." Sato chimed in before Elena could finish her words.

Elena was surprised as to how Sato found out about it, "Do you know him, Lord Sato?" She asked.

"Not exactly, let's just say I have some history with him." Sato uttered, 'Scary how accurate Helix can be sometimes… she told me the name of the council member before I even thought to ask'.

"Is that all?" Divanchi asked with her back relaxing on the wall and her arms tucked.

"No… Gudan had three mermaids with him, I think he was using them to control the vampires dressed in white." Elene exposed.

'Dressed in white?' Sato questioned.

<<Notice… The Vampires categorize into different parts.

In accordance with the white dress, these are Vampires that belong to the Nighthawks, soldiers directly under the Duke of Nerverk.

Those in Red are soldiers with a higher position in the military.

Those in blue are under the vampire security team run by Gigz and lastly, those in black are responsible for doing secret jobs that the military can't do.. this is ruled by Hikiku>>

'So if they are in white, and under Vlad that means…'

<<Accurate… the Duke of Nerverk is going to be attacked>>

Sato sighed, "Things just keep getting in the way of my plan." He said aloud.

"Lord Sato?" Elena questioned with a puzzled expression.

Shaking his head, Sato smiled, "Don't worry about me, where are the mermaids?" He asked.

Elena wavered, "Mermaids?" She asked, unhurriedly looking at Divanchi.

Sato was quick to grasp the situation, he sighed with his finger resting in between the bridge of his nose, " You didn't bring any of them with you, did you?" He asked disappointedly.

"My apologies." Elena voiced out with her eyes darting to the ground.

While she was feeling sorry for herself, she noticed that there were light sparks on the ground where she stood.

Elene immediately hopped back and not long after, a portal rose up from the ground with a razor sharp lightning encircling it.

Jessica washed out of the portal and landed on the ground right in front of Sato who was just as speechless as Divanchi and Elena.

A mermaid with blue hair flew out of the portal screaming her lungs out before she crashed on the ground.

Yuri then strolled out of the portal, lugging two mermaids on her shoulder as she walked.

"Put me down!" Xianxia shouted, jiggling so she could come down.

"Will you chill out… damn." Yuri uttered before tossing both mermaids on the ground beside their sister.

"That was stressfu as fuckl." Yuri muttered, caressing her shoulders so she could reduce the stress she was feeling.

As soon as she spotted Sato, a huge smile hit her lips, "Master!" She called out, launching herself toward him.

"Glad to see you are okay." Sato said, looking at the tied-up vampire on the floor, "Who are your friends?" He asked curiously.

"Oh."

Yuri instantly let go of Sato and stood to her feet, "I got carried away a bit." She uttered.

"You're always carried away." Davanchi added calmly.

Yuri ignored her comment with a smile as she faced Sato, "Master, she's a member of a vampire I found, stopping me from entering the garden".

"White uniform." Sato muttered to himself as she noticed the outfit the vampire was wearing.

His eyes immediately hindered the three mermaids packed at the side of the room, hugging each other with fear written all over their faces.

"What about the Mermaids?" Sato asked.

"I just found them somewhere in the garden, I figured it would be a good idea to bring them along." Yuri alluded.

"I see." Sato emitted before standing up from the bed and walking toward the mermaids.

"Hi, my name is Sato…",

As soon as Sato reached out to the mermaids they shifted back.

Sato smiled, "It's alright, I'm here to help you, but I can't if you don't tell me what happened." He uttered.

The mermaids stared at themselves before one of them took the chance and spoke up.

"My name is Xianxia, as you can tell I'm a mermaid." Xianxia introduced.

"Xianxia, nice to meet you." Sato uttered with a smile and turned to look at the remaining two.

After seeing their sister introduce herself, they both heeded and did the same, introducing themselves even though they were still skeptical.

"So tell me, what are you mermaids doing in a place like this?" Sato raised a question.

The three mermaids looked at each other, feeling reluctant to answer the question.

"You can trust me." Sato soothed.

One of them, Shuna, took a deep breath before speaking, "The Duke has lost already, an army is coming… and it's one the duke himself won't see coming".

Sato gave attention to her words, with a deep expression on his face as she sat on the floor right in front of Xianxia.

...…

Gudan sat down inside a small hut that was built somewhere in the Namvek district but far away from Vlad's mansion.

Gudan gulped down a bottle of wine with a loud 'Ahhh!' sound before slamming the wooden cup on the ground.

"Are you ready to talk now?" Puma asked, sitting crossed legged on a chair.

"Relax Puma… you should learn to have fun every once in a while." Gudan uttered with a smile.

With a a grimace, Puma stood up from the chair, "I have known Vlad for 66 years and I can tell you he didn't just get the nickname,..... For nothing.

He is a man you should fear, exactly why we need to act now before he catches on to our plan." He voiced out.

"What do you suggest then, smarty?" Gudan asked.

".... We attack at sunset, today." Puma voiced out with a straight face.
